Well having owned two 2CVs - one of them from new - I'm certainly not going to be giving an unbiased opinion.  I loved and hated the car but not in equal measures.  The only time I hated the 2CV - well I never hated it - was in the winter when the heater didn't work or in the wet when the accelerator pedal got stuck.  Apart from that I loved them both dearly and would own another one tomorrow given the chance. 

This great set based on an oil painted effect images contain everything that you need to produce some really stunning cards incljuding:

The Citroën 2CV (French: "deux chevaux" i.e. "deux chevaux-vapeur" (lit. 'two steam horses'), "two tax horsepower") is a front-engine, front wheel drive, air-cooled economy car introduced at the 1948 Paris Mondial de l'Automobile and manufactured by Citroën for model years 1948-1990[1] in a single four-door body style.

Conceived by Citroën Vice-President Paul Boulanger[3] to help motorize the large number of farmers still using horses and carts in 1930s France, the 2CV is noted for its minimalist combination of innovative engineering and utilitarian, straightforward metal bodywork — initially corrugated for added strength without added weight.[4][5][6] The 2CV featured a low purchase cost; simplicity of overall maintenance; an easily serviced air-cooled engine (originally offering 9hp); low fuel consumption; and an extremely long travel suspension offering a soft ride, light off-road capability, high ground clearance and height adjustability via lengthening/shortening of tie rods.[6] Often called "an umbrella on wheels,"[7][8] the bodywork featured a distinctive and prominent full-width, canvas, roll-back sunroof, which accommodated oversized loads and until 1955 reached almost to the car's rear bumper, covering its trunk.

Manufactured in France between 1948 and 1989 (and its final two years in Portugal 1989-1990), over 3.8 million 2CVs were produced, along with over 1.2 million small 2CV-based delivery vans known as Fourgonnettes. Citroën ultimately offered a number of mechanically identical variants including the Ami: (over 1.8 million) the Dyane (over 1.4 million); the Acadiane (over 250,000); and the Mehari (over 140,000). In total, Citroën manufactured over 8.7 million 2CV variants.

A 1953 technical review in Autocar described "the extraordinary ingenuity of this design, which is undoubtedly the most original since the Model T Ford".[9] In 2011, The Globe and Mail called it a "car like no other."[10] Noted automotive author L. J. K. Setright described the 2CV as "the most intelligent application of minimalism ever to succeed as a car,"[5] calling it a car of "remorseless rationality."[11]
